EmpireCraft is a Java SMP for 18+ players. It is meant to be smaller and tight knit so people actually get to know each other. It seems good for casual builders and also technical players.
The server tries to keep that classic vanilla feel. It uses only a few quality of life plugins and nothing that changes the core gameplay. There is Discord chat linking a live map and an optional simple voice chat.
The rules are really basic. Do not be a jerk and do not cheat. If you are chill and play fair you should fit in.
